First off, I'd just like to point out the glitch of players not showing up on the top player list that got mentioned in the "1.1 1.2 20+/-h" poll thread.
Take a look at this player - k-otic
http://stats.tremulous.net/tremstats/us1/player_details.php?player_id=207He has 5.6 effeciencies and over 5 hours of game play in over 100 games.
Then we have Ryanw -
http://stats.tremulous.net/tremstats/us1/player_details.php?player_id=3736.8 effeciencies in over 6 hours of game play in 68 games.
Yet neither of them show up here -
http://stats.tremulous.net/tremstats/us1/top_players.phpAt first I thought it might be a glitch with first seen/last seen, if you look at Ryan they're both the same time exactly. K-otic, however, appears to not have this issue.
So I thought maybe it was amount of time spectating verse amount of time playing, but on my own client -
http://stats.tremulous.net/tremstats/us1/player_details.php?player_id=1251I didn't show up on top player list until I had spectated several games. Notice that I spent almost 3 times as much spectating as I did playing. I also have the first seen last seen glitch and show up on the list.
I am clueless as to what could be causing this.
Now, for the actual feedback.
I would like to see a little bit of break down in the "top" lists. Really, all the lists. It'd be great if all the lists broke down into, Day, Week, Month, All Time.
So we have top player of the Day, top player of the Week, etc etc.
Top player of the day could have no requirement.
Top player of the week would require someone to have played 5 hours that week?
Top player of the month would require someone to have played 20 hours that month?
Top player of all time would require someone to have played 30+ hours and have over 25,000 score.
This way it would prune out people who play only one game and get 20+ effeciencies and people would have a little more respect for the list.
It would also leave the option open for someone to shoot for top player of the day or week, if they top player of all time is unreachable for them atm.
I think as the stats are more accurate over time, so in turn the top player of all time list would be more accurate than the current list(which in all reality runs under the same basis with the top player of the day with only having 5 game requirement.)
